Reboot the NVR

Reboot the NVR after you upload a new firmware. You would need 
to manually reboot the system for the new firmware to take effect. 

Such process would prevent a recording from getting interrupted be-
cause the system would not automatically reboot itself after the new 

firmware is loaded onto the recorder.

Simply click “Restart” to begin the reboot process and confirm the 

action:

The restart process should be displayed and you should be prompted 
back to the “Maintenance” page after it is complete:
